It's nice to see the origins of works such as Star Trek.  I wish there were more drafts and outlines out there.  Ii haven't sen it yet, but I read the Ron Moore wrote up a writing guide or "bible" for Battlestar Galactica well before writing scripts.  On the same subject, Glen Larson had written several story outlines for a second season of the original BSG.  In some ways I'm glad these never came to be, because ABC had planned to trim the show's budget, which meant several actors weren't coming back.
